North Tulsa Man Shot Four Times Outside Edenwood Apartments, Gunman Still at Large

A 29-year-old man is recovering after being shot four times outside the Edenwood Apartments in North Tulsa, and police still have not identified a suspect. Officers responded to the complex on North Hartford Avenue around 12:30 a.m. Sunday and found the victim suffering from four gunshot wounds outside the property.

The man was rushed to a nearby hospital, according to investigators cited by KOKH, and is expected to survive. The search for a suspect continues as detectives work to piece together what led to the shooting.

A Complex With a History of Gunfire

Edenwood Apartments is a 192-unit affordable housing community at 2171 N. Hartford Ave. that has stood in North Tulsa since 1965, according to property listings on Apartment Finder. It is not the first time police have responded to gunfire there. In September 2021, the Tulsa Police Department investigated a fatal shooting at the same complex that officers ultimately determined appeared to be an act of self-defense after the shooter turned himself in.

It is unclear whether the victim in this latest shooting was targeted or caught in unrelated gunfire outside the complex, and that detail remains an open question for investigators. The incident also comes just over a week after a separate, unrelated shooting rattled North Tulsa: on August 7, police responded to an overnight shooting near Latimer Place and N. 73rd East Avenue that left four teenagers wounded, a case Hoodline previously covered.

Citywide Numbers Show a Mixed Picture

The shooting adds to a string of recent violent incidents in North Tulsa even as broader crime data suggests the city has made gains against gun violence. Citywide, aggravated assault incidents involving firearms fell from 1,216 in 2021 to 1,031 in 2024, according to city crime report figures. In Council District 1, which includes North Tulsa and the Edenwood complex, firearm-involved aggravated assaults dropped from 388 incidents in 2021 to 282 in 2024 over the same span.

Tulsa police also reported investigating 47 homicides in 2025, the department's lowest single-year total in more than a decade, while maintaining a 95 percent clearance rate on those cases. Multi-victim shootings at Tulsa apartment complexes are not unprecedented; a May 2019 shooting at the Red Fox apartments left one person dead and three others wounded.

Potential Charges If a Suspect Is Found

Under Oklahoma law, shooting with intent to kill is classified as a violent felony that can carry imprisonment in the state penitentiary for up to life. Oklahoma's so-called 85 Percent Rule also requires defendants convicted of violent felonies, including shooting with intent to kill, to serve at least 85 percent of their sentence before becoming eligible for parole.

No arrests have been announced in connection with the Edenwood shooting, and the investigation remains active. Anyone with information is asked to contact Tulsa Crimestoppers at (918) 596-COPS, which offers anonymous tipsters cash rewards of up to $1,500 for information leading to a felony arrest.
